I've just tried the Alpha 4 live CD; and it's having video problems that maybe related to this or maybe something different.

I get the gdm login, but if I go into GNOME I get a Hardy wallpaper and then the screen goes all-white - with the mouse cursor on; I can move the cursor but I don't see anything else.

Failsafe-gnome exhibits the same behaviour (but failsafe seems to include compiz which seems IMHO a very bad idea)

Failsafe-xterm works. A glxgears from there seems to be OK.

metacity --replace from a vt fixes this.

I'm not sure if this should be filed as a separate report or if it's all part of the same thing.
